- Examples of American Chemical Society citation styleincluding citing a journal article such as those found in Web of Science
Online access to the journal Biochemistry
- Biochemistry onlineLink to American Chemistry Society Journals, should work off campus and on campus
The journal titled Biochemistry uses the citation style specific to biochemistry, so reference lists and in text references from the journal articles can be used as a model/examples of citation style.

Biochemistry--reference list examples
- This article is an example to follow, it uses the reference style recommended for biochemistryJohnson, G. L., Mac Andrew, V. I., and Pilch, P. F. (1981) Identification of the glucagon receptor in rat livermembranes by photoaffinity cross linking. Proc. Natl. Acad.Sci. U.S.A. 78, 875–878.
In text refernece style used in Biochemistry
Indicate the source you used with numbers, in italic and in parentheses, for example:
The mineralization of TCE by a pure culture of a methane-oxidizing organism has been reported (6).
In this example, the reader would look up #6 in the reference list, example below, for the complete reference/citation to the source.
Each source is numbered as it was used n the text, so this is the sixth source cited in this article. If a sources is cited again the same number is reused. So, if this source is cited again, later in the article the in-text reference number will also be 6.
